| 金声玉亮2.0 | To solve this problem, we need to find the number of ways to choose 4 balls from the box with the condition that at least 2 of them are red. First, let's consider the cases where we have exactly 2, 3, or 4 red balls, since at least 2 red balls are required. **Case 1: Exactly 2 red balls** - We choose 2 red balls from 4 red balls: \( \binom{4}{2} = 6 \) ways. - We need to choose 2 more balls from the remaining 5 balls (3 green and 2 blue): \( \binom{5}{2} = 10 \) ways. - Total for this case: \( 6 \times 10 = 60 \) ways. **Case 2: Exactly 3 red balls** - We choose 3 red balls from 4 red balls: \( \binom{4}{3} = 4 \) ways. - We need to choose 1 more ball from the remaining 5 balls (3 green and 2 blue): \( \binom{5}{1} = 5 \) ways. - Total for this case: \( 4 \times 5 = 20 \) ways. **Case 3: Exactly 4 red balls** - We choose all 4 red balls: \( \binom{4}{4} = 1 \) way. - No more balls need to be chosen. - Total for this case: \( 1 \) way. Adding up all the cases, the total number of ways to choose 4 balls with at least 2 red balls is: \[ 60 + 20 + 1 = 81 \] Therefore, the answer is \( 81 \). |

| deepseekr1 | To solve the problem of finding the number of ways to choose 4 balls from a box containing 4 red, 3 green, and 2 blue balls, with the condition that at least 2 are red, we can break it down into cases based on the number of red balls chosen. **Case 1: 2 red balls and 2 non-red balls** - The number of ways to choose 2 red balls: 1 (since they are identical). - The number of ways to choose 2 non-red balls (green or blue): - Possible combinations: (0 green, 2 blue), (1 green, 1 blue), (2 green, 0 blue). - Total: 3 ways. - Total ways for this case: \(1 \times 3 = 3\). **Case 2: 3 red balls and 1 non-red ball** - The number of ways to choose 3 red balls: 1. - The number of ways to choose 1 non-red ball (green or blue): - Possible combinations: (1 green, 0 blue), (0 green, 1 blue). - Total: 2 ways. - Total ways for this case: \(1 \times 2 = 2\). **Case 3: 4 red balls and 0 non-red balls** - The number of ways to choose 4 red balls: 1. - The number of ways to choose 0 non-red balls: 1. - Total ways for this case: \(1 \times 1 = 1\). Summing up the results from all cases: \[ 3 + 2 + 1 = 6 \] To verify, we can use the complementary counting method: - Total number of ways to choose 4 balls without any restriction: 11 (calculated using generating functions). - Number of ways with fewer than 2 red balls (0 or 1 red): - 0 red balls: 2 ways. - 1 red ball: 3 ways. - Total: \(2 + 3 = 5\). - Subtracting these from the total gives: \(11 - 5 = 6\). Thus, the final answer is \(\boxed{6}\). |

| gpto1 | To solve the problem, we need to determine the number of ways to choose 4 balls from the box, with the condition that at least 2 of them are red. The balls are identical except for their colors, which means that balls of the same color are indistinguishable from one another. Thus, we'll be counting combinations based on the counts of each color selected, not on the arrangements of individual balls. **Let’s denote:** - \( r \) = number of red balls chosen (from 4 red balls available) - \( g \) = number of green balls chosen (from 3 green balls available) - \( b \) = number of blue balls chosen (from 2 blue balls available) **Constraints:** 1. **Total balls chosen:** \( r + g + b = 4 \) 2. **At least 2 red balls:** \( r \geq 2 \) 3. **Available balls:** \( 0 \leq r \leq 4 \), \( 0 \leq g \leq 3 \), \( 0 \leq b \leq 2 \) **Step 1: List all possible combinations of \( (r, g, b) \) that satisfy the constraints.** - **When \( r = 2 \):** - \( g + b = 2 \) - Possible \( (g, b) \): \( (0,2), (1,1), (2,0) \) - **When \( r = 3 \):** - \( g + b = 1 \) - Possible \( (g, b) \): \( (0,1), (1,0) \) - **When \( r = 4 \):** - \( g + b = 0 \) - Only possible \( (g, b) \): \( (0,0) \) **So, the valid combinations are:** 1. \( (r=2, g=0, b=2) \) 2. \( (r=2, g=1, b=1) \) 3. \( (r=2, g=2, b=0) \) 4. \( (r=3, g=0, b=1) \) 5. \( (r=3, g=1, b=0) \) 6. \( (r=4, g=0, b=0) \) **Step 2: Determine the number of ways for each combination.** Since the balls of the same color are identical, selecting \( k \) balls of a color from the available balls is considered one way (if enough balls are available) or zero ways (if not enough balls are available). - For each valid combination \( (r, g, b) \), there is exactly **1 way** to choose the balls of each color, because the balls are identical within each color. - Therefore, each combination corresponds to **1 unique selection**. **Step 3: Sum the total number of ways.** - Total ways = Number of valid combinations = **6** **Answer:** 6 |

| GPT-4o | To solve the problem, we need to count the number of ways to choose 4 balls from a box containing 4 red, 3 green, and 2 blue balls, with the condition that at least 2 of the chosen balls are red. We will break this problem into cases based on the number of red balls chosen. ### Case 1: Choosing 2 red balls If we choose 2 red balls, we need to choose 2 more balls from the remaining 3 green and 2 blue balls (5 balls in total). - Number of ways to choose 2 red balls from 4 red balls: \[ \binom{4}{2} = \frac{4!}{2!(4-2)!} = 6 \] - Number of ways to choose 2 balls from the remaining 5 balls: \[ \binom{5}{2} = \frac{5!}{2!(5-2)!} = 10 \] - Total number of ways for this case: \[ \binom{4}{2} \times \binom{5}{2} = 6 \times 10 = 60 \] ### Case 2: Choosing 3 red balls If we choose 3 red balls, we need to choose 1 more ball from the remaining 3 green and 2 blue balls (5 balls in total). - Number of ways to choose 3 red balls from 4 red balls: \[ \binom{4}{3} = \frac{4!}{3!(4-3)!} = 4 \] - Number of ways to choose 1 ball from the remaining 5 balls: \[ \binom{5}{1} = \frac{5!}{1!(5-1)!} = 5 \] - Total number of ways for this case: \[ \binom{4}{3} \times \binom{5}{1} = 4 \times 5 = 20 \] ### Case 3: Choosing 4 red balls If we choose 4 red balls, there are no more balls to choose (we have already chosen all 4). - Number of ways to choose 4 red balls from 4 red balls: \[ \binom{4}{4} = \frac{4!}{4!(4-4)!} = 1 \] - Total number of ways for this case: \[ \binom{4}{4} = 1 \] ### Summing Up All Cases To find the total number of ways to choose 4 balls with at least 2 red balls, we sum up the results from all three cases: \[ 60 + 20 + 1 = 81 \] Therefore, the number of ways to choose 4 balls such that at least 2 are red is \(\boxed{81}\). |

| llama3.1-70B-Instruct | Let's break down the problem into cases: **Case 1: Exactly 2 red balls** We choose 2 red balls out of 4 (C(4,2) = 6 ways). We choose 2 non-red balls out of 5 (3 green + 2 blue) (C(5,2) = 10 ways). Total ways in this case: 6 × 10 = 60 **Case 2: Exactly 3 red balls** We choose 3 red balls out of 4 (C(4,3) = 4 ways).

| DeepSeek-Coder-V2 | To solve the problem of choosing 4 balls from a box containing 4 red, 3 green, and 2 blue balls with the condition that at least 2 are red, we can break down the problem into different cases based on the number of red balls chosen. ### Case 1: Choosing exactly 2 red balls - We need to choose 2 more balls from the remaining 7 balls (3 green and 2 blue). - The number of ways to choose 2 balls from 7 is given by the combination formula \( \binom{7}{2} \). \[ \binom{7}{2} = \frac{7!}{2!(7-2)!} = \frac{7 \times 6}{2 \times 1} = 21 \] ### Case 2: Choosing exactly 3 red balls - We need to choose 1 more ball from the remaining 7 balls (3 green and 2 blue). - The number of ways to choose 1 ball from 7 is given by the combination formula \( \binom{7}{1} \). \[ \binom{7}{1} = \frac{7!}{1!(7-1)!} = \frac{7}{1} = 7 \] ### Case 3: Choosing exactly 4 red balls - This is straightforward since we are choosing all 4 red balls. - The number of ways to choose 4 red balls from 4 is given by the combination formula \( \binom{4}{4} \). \[ \binom{4}{4} = 1 \] ### Total Number of Ways To find the total number of ways to choose 4 balls with at least 2 red balls, we sum the number of ways for each case: \[ \text{Total ways} = \binom{7}{2} + \binom{7}{1} + \binom{4}{4} = 21 + 7 + 1 = 29 \] Thus, the number of ways to choose 4 balls with at least 2 red balls is: \[ \boxed{29} \] |

| Qwen2-72B-Instruct | To solve this problem, we need to find the number of ways to choose 4 balls from the box with the condition that at least 2 of them are red. First, let's calculate the total number of ways to choose 4 balls from the box without any restrictions. The total number of balls in the box is 4 red + 3 green + 2 blue = 9 balls. The number of ways to choose 4 balls from 9 balls is given by the combination formula C(n, k) = n! / [k!(n-k)!], where n is the total number of items, k is the number of items to choose, and "!" denotes the factorial. So, the total number of ways to choose 4 balls from the box is C(9, 4) = 9! / [4!(9-4)!] = 126 ways. However, we need to exclude the cases where we choose 4 balls with less than 2 red balls. This means we need to subtract the cases where we choose 0 red balls and 1 red ball. The number of ways to choose 4 balls with 0 red balls is the number of ways to choose 4 balls from the 5 non-red balls (3 green + 2 blue = 5 balls). This is given by C(5, 4) = 5! / [4!(5-4)!] = 5 ways. The number of ways to choose 4 balls with 1 red ball is the number of ways to choose 1 red ball from the 4 red balls and 3 balls from the 5 non-red balls. This is given by C(4, 1) * C(5, 3) = 4! / [1!(4-1)!] * 5! / [3!(5-3)!] = 4 * 10 = 40 ways. Therefore, the number of ways to choose 4 balls with at least 2 red balls is the total number of ways to choose 4 balls minus the number of ways to choose 4 balls with 0 red balls and 1 red ball. So, the number of ways to choose 4 balls with at least 2 red balls is 126 - 5 - 40 = 81 ways. Therefore, the answer is 81. |

| baichuan4 | To find the number of ways to choose 4 balls from a box containing 4 red, 3 green, and 2 blue balls, with at least 2 red balls, we can break down the problem into different cases based on the number of red balls chosen and then use combinations to calculate each case. Case 1: Choose 4 red balls. There is only one way to choose 4 red balls from 4 available red balls. Case 2: Choose 3 red balls and 1 ball of another color. We have 4 red balls to choose from, and we need to choose 3 of them, which can be done in C(4, 3) ways. Then, we need to choose 1 ball from the remaining 5 non-red balls, which can be done in C(5, 1) ways. Thus, the total for this case is C(4, 3) * C(5, 1). Case 3: Choose 2 red balls and 2 balls of another color. We have 4 red balls to choose from, and we need to choose 2 of them, which can be done in C(4, 2) ways. From the remaining 6 non-red balls, we need to choose 2 of them, which can be done in C(6, 2) ways. However, we need to subtract the combinations where we choose 2 green and 2 red balls, as this does not meet the requirement of at least 2 red balls. Thus, the total for this case is C(4, 2) * C(6, 2) - C(3, 2) * C(4, 2). Now, let's calculate each combination: C(4, 3) = 4 (since we are choosing 3 out of 4) C(5, 1) = 5 (since we are choosing 1 out of 5) C(4, 2) = 6 (since we are choosing 2 out of 4) C(6, 2) = 15 (since we are choosing 2 out of 6) C(3, 2) = 3 (since we are choosing 2 out of 3 green balls) Plugging in the numbers: Case 1: 1 way Case 2: 4 * 5 = 20 ways Case 3: 6 * 15 - 3 * 6 = 90 - 18 = 72 ways Adding up all cases, we get: 1 (Case 1) + 20 (Case 2) + 72 (Case 3) = 93 ways So, there are 93 ways to choose 4 balls from the box, given that at least 2 of them are red. |

| doubao | We can consider three cases: Case 1: Exactly 2 red balls. We choose 2 red balls from 4 in C(4,2) ways. Then we choose 2 balls from the 3 green and 2 blue (5 balls in total) in C(5,2) ways. So the number of ways for this case is C(4,2) * C(5,2). Case 2: exactly 3 red balls. We choose 3 red balls from 4 in C(4,3) ways. Then we choose 1 ball from the 3 green and 2 blue (5 balls in total) in C(5,1) ways. So the number of ways for this case is C(4,3) * C(5,1). Case 3: all 4 red balls. This can be done in C(4,4) = 1 way. Adding up the number of ways from these three cases gives the total number of ways: C(4,2) * C(5,2) + C(4,3) * C(5,1) + C(4,4) = (6 * 10) + (4 * 5) + 1 = 60 + 20 + 1 = 81 ways. |

| minimax | To solve this problem, we need to consider the different scenarios in which at least 2 red balls are chosen. We can break this down into three cases: 1. Exactly 2 red balls are chosen. 2. Exactly 3 red balls are chosen. 3. All 4 balls chosen are red. For each case, we will calculate the number of ways to choose the balls and then sum these numbers to get the total number of ways to choose 4 balls with at least 2 being red. Case 1: Exactly 2 red balls are chosen. We choose 2 out of 4 red balls and then choose 2 out of the remaining 5 balls (3 green + 2 blue). The number of ways to do this is given by the combination formula C(n, k) = n! / (k!(n-k)!), where n is the total number of items to choose from, k is the number of items to choose, and "!" denotes factorial. Number of ways to choose 2 red balls from 4: C(4, 2) = 4! / (2! * (4-2)!) = (4 * 3) / (2 * 1) = 6 Number of ways to choose 2 balls from the remaining 5 (3 green + 2 blue): C(5, 2) = 5! / (2! * (5-2)!) = (5 * 4) / (2 * 1) = 10 Total for Case 1: 6 * 10 = 60 ways Case 2: Exactly 3 red balls are chosen. We choose 3 out of 4 red balls and then choose 1 out of the remaining 5 balls (3 green + 2 blue). Number of ways to choose 3 red balls from 4: C(4, 3) = 4! / (3! * (4-3)!) = 4 Number of ways to choose 1 ball from the remaining 5 (3 green + 2 blue): C(5, 1) = 5! / (1! * (5-1)!) = 5 Total for Case 2: 4 * 5 = 20 ways Case 3: All 4 balls chosen are red. There is only one way to do this since we are choosing all the red balls. Total for Case 3: 1 way Now, we add the number of ways for each case to get the total number of ways to choose 4 balls with at least 2 being red. Total number of ways = Case 1 + Case 2 + Case 3 Total number of ways = 60 + 20 + 1 Total number of ways = 81 Therefore, there are 81 different ways to choose 4 balls from the box with the condition that at least 2 of them are red. |

| kimi | To solve this problem, we can use the concept of combinations. We want to find the number of ways to choose 4 balls out of the total 9 balls (4 red, 3 green, and 2 blue) such that at least 2 of them are red. We can break this down into different cases based on the number of red balls chosen: 1. **Case 1**: Exactly 2 red balls are chosen. 2. **Case 2**: Exactly 3 red balls are chosen. 3. **Case 3**: All 4 balls are red. Let's calculate the number of ways for each case: **Case 1**: Choose 2 red balls out of 4 and 2 other balls out of the remaining 5 (3 green and 2 blue). - Ways to choose 2 red balls: \( \binom{4}{2} \) - Ways to choose 2 other balls out of 5: \( \binom{5}{2} \) - Total for this case: \( \binom{4}{2} \times \binom{5}{2} \) **Case 2**: Choose 3 red balls out of 4 and 1 other ball out of the remaining 5. - Ways to choose 3 red balls: \( \binom{4}{3} \) - Ways to choose 1 other ball out of 5: \( \binom{5}{1} \) - Total for this case: \( \binom{4}{3} \times \binom{5}{1} \) **Case 3**: Choose all 4 red balls. - Ways to choose 4 red balls: \( \binom{4}{4} \) - Total for this case: \( \binom{4}{4} \) Now, let's calculate the combinations: \( \binom{4}{2} = \frac{4!}{2!(4-2)!} = \frac{4 \times 3}{2 \times 1} = 6 \) \( \binom{5}{2} = \frac{5!}{2!(5-2)!} = \frac{5 \times 4}{2 \times 1} = 10 \) \( \binom{4}{3} = \frac{4!}{3!(4-3)!} = \frac{4}{1} = 4 \) \( \binom{5}{1} = \frac{5!}{1!(5-1)!} = \frac{5}{1} = 5 \) \( \binom{4}{4} = \frac{4!}{4!(4-4)!} = 1 \) Now, multiply the combinations for each case: **Case 1**: \( 6 \times 10 = 60 \) **Case 2**: \( 4 \times 5 = 20 \) **Case 3**: \( 1 \times 1 = 1 \) Finally, add the totals from each case to get the total number of ways: Total number of ways = \( 60 + 20 + 1 = 81 \) So, there are 81 ways to choose 4 balls from the box with at least 2 of them being red. |

| wenxinyiyan | 我们可以将问题分为三种情况：选择2个红球、选择3个红球、选择4个红球。 1. 选择2个红球的情况： 在这种情况下，我们还需要选择2个非红色的球。这2个非红色的球可以是绿色的，也可以是蓝色的，或者一个绿色和一个蓝色。 * 选择2个绿球的方法数是 $C(3, 2) = 3$ * 选择2个蓝球的方法数是 $C(2, 2) = 1$ * 选择1个绿球和1个蓝球的方法数是 $C(3, 1) imes C(2, 1) = 3 imes 2 = 6$ 所以，在选择2个红球的情况下，总共有 $3 + 1 + 6 = 10$ 种方法。 2. 选择3个红球的情况： 在这种情况下，我们还需要选择1个非红色的球。这个非红色的球可以是绿色的，也可以是蓝色的。 * 选择1个绿球的方法数是 $C(3, 1) = 3$ * 选择1个蓝球的方法数是 $C(2, 1) = 2$ 所以，在选择3个红球的情况下，总共有 $3 + 2 = 5$ 种方法。 3. 选择4个红球的情况： 在这种情况下，所有选择的球都是红色的，所以只有1种方法。 综上所述，总共有 $10 + 5 + 1 = 16$ 种方法可以选择4个球，其中至少2个是红色的。 |

| zhipu | To solve this problem, we need to count the number of ways to choose 4 balls from the box with the condition that at least 2 of them are red. We can break this down into cases based on the number of red balls chosen: 1. Choosing exactly 2 red balls. 2. Choosing exactly 3 red balls. 3. Choosing all 4 red balls. We will calculate the number of ways for each case and then sum them up. ### Case 1: Choosing exactly 2 red balls - We need to choose 2 red balls out of 4. The number of ways to do this is given by the combination formula \( \binom{n}{k} \), which represents the number of ways to choose \( k \) items from \( n \) items without regard to order. Thus, the number of ways to choose 2 red balls is: \[ \binom{4}{2} = \frac{4!}{2!(4-2)!} = \frac{4 \times 3}{2 \times 1} = 6 \] - We also need to choose 2 more balls from the remaining 5 balls (3 green and 2 blue). The number of ways to choose 2 balls from these 5 is: \[ \binom{5}{2} = \frac{5!}{2!(5-2)!} = \frac{5 \times 4}{2 \times 1} = 10 \] - Therefore, the total number of ways to choose exactly 2 red balls and 2 other balls is: \[ 6 \times 10 = 60 \] ### Case 2: Choosing exactly 3 red balls - We need to choose 3 red balls out of 4. The number of ways to do this is: \[ \binom{4}{3} = \frac{4!}{3!(4-3)!} = \frac{4}{1} = 4 \] - We also need to choose 1 more ball from the remaining 5 balls (3 green and 2 blue). The number of ways to choose 1 ball from these 5 is: \[ \binom{5}{1} = \frac{5!}{1!(5-1)!} = 5 \] - Therefore, the total number of ways to choose exactly 3 red balls and 1 other ball is: \[ 4 \times 5 = 20 \] ### Case 3: Choosing all 4 red balls - We need to choose all 4 red balls out of 4. The number of ways to do this is: \[ \binom{4}{4} = \frac{4!}{4!(4-4)!} = 1 \] - Since we are choosing all red balls, we do not need to choose any more balls from the remaining colors. ### Summing up all cases The total number of ways to choose 4 balls with at least 2 being red is the sum of the ways from each case: \[ 60 + 20 + 1 = 81 \] Therefore, there are \( \boxed{81} \) ways to choose 4 balls from the box if at least 2 are red. |

| gpto1 | To solve the problem, we need to determine the number of ways to choose 4 balls from the box, with the condition that at least 2 of them are red. The balls are identical except for their colors, which means that balls of the same color are indistinguishable from one another. Thus, we'll be counting combinations based on the counts of each color selected, not on the arrangements of individual balls. **Let’s denote:** - \( r \) = number of red balls chosen (from 4 red balls available) - \( g \) = number of green balls chosen (from 3 green balls available) - \( b \) = number of blue balls chosen (from 2 blue balls available) **Constraints:** 1. **Total balls chosen:** \( r + g + b = 4 \) 2. **At least 2 red balls:** \( r \geq 2 \) 3. **Available balls:** \( 0 \leq r \leq 4 \), \( 0 \leq g \leq 3 \), \( 0 \leq b \leq 2 \) **Step 1: List all possible combinations of \( (r, g, b) \) that satisfy the constraints.** - **When \( r = 2 \):** - \( g + b = 2 \) - Possible \( (g, b) \): \( (0,2), (1,1), (2,0) \) - **When \( r = 3 \):** - \( g + b = 1 \) - Possible \( (g, b) \): \( (0,1), (1,0) \) - **When \( r = 4 \):** - \( g + b = 0 \) - Only possible \( (g, b) \): \( (0,0) \) **So, the valid combinations are:** 1. \( (r=2, g=0, b=2) \) 2. \( (r=2, g=1, b=1) \) 3. \( (r=2, g=2, b=0) \) 4. \( (r=3, g=0, b=1) \) 5. \( (r=3, g=1, b=0) \) 6. \( (r=4, g=0, b=0) \) **Step 2: Determine the number of ways for each combination.** Since the balls of the same color are identical, selecting \( k \) balls of a color from the available balls is considered one way (if enough balls are available) or zero ways (if not enough balls are available). - For each valid combination \( (r, g, b) \), there is exactly **1 way** to choose the balls of each color, because the balls are identical within each color. - Therefore, each combination corresponds to **1 unique selection**. **Step 3: Sum the total number of ways.** - Total ways = Number of valid combinations = **6** **Answer:** 6 |

| deepseekv3 | To solve the problem, we need to determine the number of ways to choose 4 balls from a box containing 4 red, 3 green, and 2 blue balls, with the condition that at least 2 of the chosen balls are red. ### Step 1: Total Number of Ways to Choose 4 Balls First, calculate the total number of ways to choose 4 balls from the box without any restrictions. The box contains a total of \(4 + 3 + 2 = 9\) balls. The number of ways to choose 4 balls from 9 is given by the combination formula: \[ \text{Total ways} = \binom{9}{4} = \frac{9!}{4! \cdot 5!} = 126 \] ### Step 2: Number of Ways to Choose 4 Balls with Fewer Than 2 Red Balls Next, calculate the number of ways to choose 4 balls where fewer than 2 are red. This includes two cases: 1. **Case 1:** Exactly 0 red balls are chosen. 2. **Case 2:** Exactly 1 red ball is chosen. #### Case 1: Exactly 0 Red Balls If no red balls are chosen, all 4 balls must be chosen from the remaining \(3 + 2 = 5\) balls (green and blue). The number of ways to do this is: \[ \binom{5}{4} = \frac{5!}{4! \cdot 1!} = 5 \] #### Case 2: Exactly 1 Red Ball If exactly 1 red ball is chosen, the remaining 3 balls must be chosen from the \(3 + 2 = 5\) balls (green and blue). The number of ways to do this is: \[ \binom{4}{1} \times \binom{5}{3} = 4 \times \frac{5!}{3! \cdot 2!} = 4 \times 10 = 40 \] #### Total Ways with Fewer Than 2 Red Balls Add the results from both cases: \[ \text{Ways with fewer than 2 red balls} = 5 + 40 = 45 \] ### Step 3: Number of Ways to Choose 4 Balls with At Least 2 Red Balls Finally, subtract the number of ways with fewer than 2 red balls from the total number of ways: \[ \text{Ways with at least 2 red balls} = \text{Total ways} - \text{Ways with fewer than 2 red balls} = 126 - 45 = 81 \] ### Conclusion The number of ways to choose 4 balls with at least 2 red balls is: \[ \boxed{81} \] |
